SELECTIVE COLLECTION IN PALMAS/TO: ANALYSIS OF THE FIRST MUNICIPAL RECYCLING PROGRAM
Selective collection aiming the recycling of municipal solid waste is worldwide an alternative to reduce the final disposal in landfills, besides reducing natural resources consumption. This paper aimed to analyze the system of selective collection of recyclable materials proposed by the municipal government of Palmas through the Program “Coleta Palmas”, through data collection in the institutions involved, intending to contribute for the improvement of the system adopted. A survey was carried out with the main stakeholders of the Program, with the purpose of knowing the institutional arrangement, the types of partnerships, the objectives and targets set, the actions and strategies planning, the monitoring and results achieved so far. Results showed difficulties involving the coordination unit, and it was noticed that the general view of the operating units on the Program is positive, although for two of them, to date, the participation has not represented financial gains. It was concluded that changes in the management of the Program are necessary, including improvement of social communication and continuous environmental education. Lastly, recommendations made by the operating units were collected in three perspectives: institutional, operational, and environmental education.
